"To Be Brought to Life, To Live, To Give Life" Keitsū Miyamoto Price: ¥1000 The author is the chief priest of Muryōju-in Temple (Matsubushi, Saitama Prefecture). What kind of temple is useful to the community and people? He has spent many years searching and contemplating. His pet theory is the "Three Stages of Life." First, in the birth and growth period, one is helped by others. In other words, "to be brought to life." Next, in the period of fulfillment, one has feelings of gratitude and appreciation, and uses the accumulated power to "live" to the fullest extent independently. Entering the second half of life, based on the teachings and kindness received from others, and one's own experiences, one then turns to the side of nurturing those around them. That is, "to give life." This is a collection of poems and essays filled with the wisdom, invaluable advice, and encouraging words needed for each stage of life. #KeitsūMiyamoto #Keitsū_Miyamoto #book #JapaneseLiterature/Essays 2510-08b222
